North American Van Lines provided exceptional service from the time I contacted then through completion of our move. The crew was very professional and took excellent care of our things. I highly recommend them.

All aspects of our move was handled professionally, efficiently and courteously. All of our possessions were packed and delivered without damage. Kudos to the crews and especially Patrick.

Out of 4 interstate moves by four different companies this one was the worst out of them all. Most damaged items. Dishonesty from what estimator stated and what company stood by. Did not call to confirm arrival time for Day 1 packing. Had to provide tape on day 2 of packing and then having to fight to get reimbursed. Left diesel fuel container in my garage with diesel in it and won't take care of the disposal. Damaged a wall in the move out house I had to fix. Was told by driver they would do a one-time pick up of used boxes, when email a request, it was $175. They unloaded numerous items at the new house- through the house instead of using the side gate or into the actual garages. Example - patio fire table- dropped glass fragments from the table through the house, instead of going around the side. Very disappointing.

From the first local pickup to delivery earlier than thought service was great. Was worth the quote and peace of mind working with North American’s agent : Advantage.

From the beginning of the process everyone I dealt with was responsive, friendly and professional. Chuck completed the estimate via FaceTime. Carmen was assigned as my coordinator and she is great. Moving across the country is really stressful and I’d never done it before and it’s just me so no one to take on some of the load. I called Carmen one day and said everything I was worried about and she calmed me down and said they had it. Fabian was my driver so he was there for every step beginning with packing. His crews were awesome and the 2 men that were with him for the unloading were great about moving things if I didn’t like the way a room looked. Great experience from beginning to end. Highly recommend.

North American Van Lines did an awesome job from beginning to the end of my move. Very professional, and they took good care of my belongings. They were also very prompt in delivering to the final destination.

I was extremely pleased with this company and our move out of state, until I realized I was missing a box. I filed a claim and was told it was denied because I can't prove it. How do you prove that? I am very angry.The driver had to have found it on the truck. I don't know if he was ever contacted.

We contracted with North American Van Lines to move our belongings from the northwest Chicago suburbs to Fruita, a small town in western Colorado. If you hire these guys, I will guarantee they will be breaking many of your items. While North American wrapped the furniture, we packed all the boxes ourselves. We spent hundreds of dollars for moving boxes, bubble wrap and other packing materials to make sure our items arrived safely. When the boxes were moved from our house into the trailer, they were in perfect condition. It didn't matter. Our items did not break because of the way they were packed in the boxes. They broke because of the way the boxes were loaded and crammed on the truck. When we contracted with North American, we specifically asked the salesman about items broken in shipping. He told us if anything was broken to take pictures of the broken items and the boxes they came in. Then file a claim using their online form which we did and the items would be paid for. That is not what happened. North American paid us $109 for a claimed $840 in damaged items. Then to discourage us from asking for anything more they said if we chose to, we could file for arbitration. They were also going to charge us $300 to file for arbitration to discourage us from further advancing our claim. North American is claiming that because they did not pack the boxes, they couldn't be held liable for any damages. They further claimed that there was no written notification made of crushed boxes at the time of delivery. The reason there is no written notification at delivery is the driver, who should have been supervising the unloading, was sleeping in the truck while another local crew that was brought in did the unloading. As for who packed the boxes, that is irrelevant because of the way the boxes were loaded. Even if North American had packed the boxes the same damage would have occurred. Having worked for UPS in the trucking industry I know there is a right way and a wrong way to load a truck trailer. Our trailer was 13-feet high. The correct way to load it would have been to stack boxes to build walls until the boxes reached half the height of the trailer. Then a wood platform is mounted across the trailer and more boxes are then loaded to the top. By doing it this way the weight of the boxes is evenly distributed and the boxes on the bottom are not crushed. When our trailer was loaded all our boxes were clearly marked with what was in them. Unfortunately, the crew member stacking the boxes didn't speak English so it is unlikely he understood what was in each box. He then built the box walls from the floor all the way to the top without using any wood platforms. As a result, all of the boxes on the bottom were crushed by the weight of 13-feet of other boxes stacked on top of them. Those bottom boxes are where all of our broken items were packed.Our trailer was 53-feet long. When it was loaded, all 17,000 pounds of our belongings were packed in the first third of the trailer. This left room for other loads to be delivered along the way. When we got to our new house we had to wait 10 days for our items to be delivered. Because of the excessive delay I asked the driver how many other stops he had to make enroute. He said there were no other stops. Our items went direct from Chicago. My point here is that if there were no other stops there was no reason to pack our items so tight. The box walls didn't need to go to the ceiling of the trailer. Had the load been spread out more the boxes on the bottom may not have been crushed at all.Buyer beware!

The whole process of moving out of state went great, until I realized I was missing a box. I filed a claim, and am being told my claim was denied because I can't prove it. That is the stupidest thing I ever heard. I just want my stuff. Carmen, who handles the office end, will not answer my calls. I've asked the person who denied my claim, twice, if the driver was contacted and she won't answer my question, via email. I'm really disgusted.

We were very pleased with the coordination and professionalism from the time we had someone come to our home for a quote, to the moving coordinator to the crew loading and unloading our possessions. They were careful in the moving process and it was evident that there was leadership and excellent teamwork!!! I would highly recommend this company for your future moving needs!
